[Investigation Nos. 701-TA-269 and 270 and 731-TA-311-314, 317, and 379 
(Second Review)]


Brass Sheet and Strip From Brazil, Canada, France, Germany, 
Italy, and Japan

AGENCY: International Trade Commission.

ACTION: Notice of Commission determination to conduct full five-year 
reviews concerning the countervailing duty orders on brass sheet and 
strip from Brazil and France and the antidumping duty orders on brass 
sheet and strip from Brazil, Canada, France, Germany, Italy, and Japan.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

SUMMARY: The Commission hereby gives notice that it will proceed with 
full reviews pursuant to section 751(c)(5) of the Tariff Act of 1930 
(19 U.S.C. 1675(c)(5)) to determine whether revocation of the 
countervailing duty orders on brass sheet and strip from Brazil and 
France and the antidumping duty orders on brass sheet and strip from 
Brazil, Canada, France, Germany, Italy, and Japan would be likely to 
lead to continuation or recurrence of material injury within a 
reasonably foreseeable time. A schedule for the reviews will be 
established and announced at a later date. For further information 
concerning the conduct of these reviews and rules of general 
application, consult the Commission's Rules of Practice and Procedure, 
part 201, subparts A through E (19 CFR part 201), and part 207, 
subparts A, D, E, and F (19 CFR part 207).

DATES: Effective Date: July 5, 2005.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: On July 5, 2005, the Commission determined 
that it should proceed to full reviews in the subject five-year reviews 
pursuant to section 751(c)(5) of the Act. The Commission found that the 
domestic interested party group response to its notice of institution 
(70 FR 16519, March 31, 2005) was adequate, and that the respondent 
interested party group response with respect to Germany was adequate, 
but found that the respondent interested party group responses with 
respect to Brazil, Canada, France, Italy, and Japan were inadequate. 
However, the Commission determined to conduct full reviews concerning 
subject imports from Brazil, Canada, France, Italy, and Japan to 
promote administrative efficiency in light of its decision to conduct a 
full review with respect to subject imports from Germany. A record of 
the Commissioners' votes, the Commission's statement on adequacy, and 
any individual Commissioner's statements will be available from the 
Office of the Secretary and at the Commission's Web site.

    Authority: These reviews are being conducted under authority of 
title VII of the Tariff Act of 1930; this notice is published 
pursuant to section 207.62 of the Commission's rules.

    By order of the Commission.

    Issued: July 14, 2005.
Marilyn R. Abbott,
Secretary to the Commission.
